| Reverse description | Plain incuse square divided into four quadrants by a raised cruciform ridge, forming a windmill or swastika-like pattern of alternating raised and sunken rectangular compartments, typical of the mill-sail incuse type employed on archaic and classical Greek hammered coinage. The incuse is deeply punched and irregular in outline, reflecting hand-struck manufacture. The reverse field shows no legend or additional devices, consistent with all Kyzikene electrum staters of this period. |
